ROCHESTER — Alfred Myers, who remains in jail after allegedly forcing a woman to have sex, threatening her with a knife, and kicking a dog down the stairs, appeared at Strafford County Superior Court Tuesday for a dispositional conference.

During the hearing, a final pretrial conference has been scheduled for Feb. 14.

Myers is currently being held on $10,000 cash bail after his arrest on Aug. 4. He was charged with aggravated felonious sexual assault for allegedly using force or threats to make the victim have sex with him. If convicted of the charge, he could face a maximum sentence of 10 to 20 years in prison.

He is also charged with three counts of criminal threatening, for allegedly holding a knife up to the woman’s throat and threatening to kill her.

Myers was also charged with two counts of felony simple assault, for allegedly pushing the victim. He has previously been convicted of violating a protective order, according to his October indictment.

In addition, Myers is facing a misdemeanor animal cruelty charge, which alleges he negligently kicked a dog down the stairs during the incident.

According to court documents, officials are expecting a three-day trial for Myers, and jury selection is scheduled for March 3.
